As the NFL draft came to an end, teams began assessing their draft picks and figuring out how to get their early versions of their teams out on the field for organized team activities (OTAs).
For the Denver Broncos, OTAs will start in early June and will feature seventh-round tight end Dallen Bentley. In a post-draft roundup, ESPN's Field Yates ranked Bentley among the best picks from the last round of the draft.
“The Broncos made the draft's final two selections, using the penultimate pick on Bentley," Yates wrote for ESPN. "He's a long tight end who can be a factor in the middle of the field with his strong hands and useful run-after-catch ability. Bentley had 48 catches for 620 yards in 2025 and will compete with fellow rookie Justin Joly for an opportunity to take on coach Sean Payton's 'joker' role on offense.”
Seventh-round draft picks are typically long shots to make the team. Luckily, Bentley comes with experience as he will enter the NFL at 25 years old. Hopefully, Bentley makes a great impression during OTAs so he can grab a roster spot.
